DISTRIBUTION OF THE TEMPERATURE IN ICE COOLED OR MECHANICALLY REFRIGERATED VEHICLES. COMPARISON OF AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS IN A 20' REFRIGERATED CONTAINER

The tests described in the present report were carried out in 1973 by Vienna Arsenal to compare the behaviour of different systems of air circulation, classic and horizontal. It was observed that these systems were usable but capable of perfection, and that the improvements to be made depend on the development of the packages forming the load.
